Welcome to Foundations of Teaching and Learning. This is the fifth course in the series, and in it, my colleague Linda Kaser or and I will be focusing on planning, how you plan as a teacher to develop the best possible learning experience for your students. Linda and I work at Vancouver Island University, where we're the directors of the Center for Innovative Educational Leadership. We work with hundreds of graduate students in BC and in other places across Canada. We worked with a network of schools involving thousands of teachers over the last dozen years. We're excited about being part of this experience with you. We're going to take a broad perspective on planning. It's going to be informed by the notion of mindset that we'll introduce very briefly in this session. We're also going to be informing planning from an international perspective on what we know makes a difference for teaching and learning. We hope that through this, you'll have an opportunity to explore some really exciting innovative opportunities that are taking place in schools around the world. The idea of the growth mindset is really, really important. Carol Dweck is a researcher at Stanford, and she's introduced the world to the difference between a growth in a fixed mindset. So just a question for you to think of as we enter into this course: Have you ever heard one of your students say, "I'm no good at math," "I can't do art," "I don't like French," "I'm not a good athlete"? That represents a fixed mindset. What we want is through your planning, to provide the opportunities for learners to believe that they can get better just about anything with the right support and the right kind of feedback. So we're going to be thinking about how do we plan to provide the feedback to our learner and to create the conditions for their learning, where they will believe they can and they will be successful as learners. I'm Linda Kaser, and you've just heard from my colleague Judy Halbert because we work together and we plan together. Two ideas to more ideas I suppose that we're going to introduce you into this course which we're very excited about teaching together and learning from you. One is a spiral of inquiry that we think is extremely powerful as a planning tool. It has six phases. We've found that teachers.
